With a head full of curls, I must have Texture Twist. I have tried other creams, waxes, and pomades, but the Texture Twist is perfect for holding my curls and preventing frizz. I am having a harder time finding it at retail stores so bought three from Overstock.com to hold me over for awhile. The 3-ounce packaging also means it's airline-friendly.

The Dutch Ambassador's Residence is located in Beijing's 2nd Diplomatic District. The relatively large site allowed for a single-storey building to be composed with two wings. The private wing is separated from the official functions, protecting the domestic character of the ambassador's home. The design is dominated by an elongated wall of layered Mongolian granite and a cantilevered roof. The south and west façades offer free views to the garden that is designed as a dry river. The winter garden provides year-round greenery in the harsh Beijing climate (text from architect's website).

Bauerly commissioned as Army Field Artillery 2nd Lt.
July 29, 2009
Alan William Bauerly, Tonganoxie, was commissioned into the Army Field Artillery as a second lieutenant during Kansas State University's U.S. Army ROTC commissioning ceremony May 15 at the Alumni Center. His lieutenant bars were pinned on by his grandfather, Merril Lovendahl, his wife, Kristen, and his father, David Bauerly. The first salute was administered by his father, Sgt. 1st Class (Retired) David Bauerly.
Maj. Gen. Vincent Brooks, commanding general of the 1st Infantry Division and Fort Riley, served as the keynote speaker at the ceremony and commended the graduates on their decision to serve. Lt. Col. GeorgeBelin, commander of the K-State "Wildcat" ROTC Battalion, said that although times have changed since when he was commissioned, the new officers' dedication to their country has not.
2nd Lt. Bauerly will be assigned to Fort Riley after completion of the field artillery officer basic course at Fort Sill, Okla. He currently is serving as part of the leadership cadre at ROTC Leadership Assessment and Development Course at Fort Lewis, Wash.
Alan is the son of SFC David and Kerril Bauerly, Tonganoxie. He is the grandson of Merril and Karen Lovendahl, Meriden, and Genevieve Price, Milford. He is a 2004 graduate of Tonganoxie High School and served in the Kansas Army National Guard while attending college. He graduated from Kansas State on May 16 with a bachelor's degree in agricultural technology management.

always been uncomfortable in it
always wanting to be someone else
always pretending to be someone I am not
perfect is always here for me
waiting for me to stop struggling
against it
resistance is futile!
my mind will stop and get out of the way
one day
how long will my errant mind rule?
certain that its furious tirade
to demand order
to demand a beat
to demand a a rhythm from life
is the right path.
poor delusional self!
gorging itself on fantasies
grown in the soil
of a decaying, dirty world
ruled by phantoms
endlessly seeking to be full,
when everything they eat
just runs right thru them
leaving them empty
and eager to shovel down
the next thing
that will also bring them
I feel peace at my side
watching me with a curious smile
as I bash about the world
with a pot over my head!
desperately trying to believe
the movie reeling out of my
out of control
is the world I live in.
Awesome! Let me hear it once you get it down. I could see if I can get someone to sing it, if you want.

Finding My New Mom-of-Two Personal Normal
There's a lot of press given to not losing who you are in motherhood, to making sure you take care of yourself and get the time you need to do things that are important to you. I'm all about that, but at the same time, the beginning days of being a mother of two left little time or desire to attend to things that matter to me aside from my children. Their needs were so big, and I was so tired. I didn't really care if I was "losing myself." I would gladly have gotten lost if I could have had a few more hours of uninterrupted sleep. I don't think there's anything wrong with just being in survival mode for a season, letting go of everything aside from just making sure everyone is alive and kicking at the end of each day.
However, now that we've been home nearly four months and Elvie has been cleared to proceed with normal well baby check-ups instead of bi-weekly monitoring, I have a little more time and energy to get backing to being, well, myself. I still can't do anything huge, and caring for my children is still my main occupation, but there are some little things I've slipped back into my routine that make me feel like life is normal again.

AP Photo To assume that Iran will not close the Strait of Hormuz is to assume that primitive religious fanatics will perform cost-benefit analyses the way they are done at Wharton. They won't, especially if the oil that is their life's blood is threatened. If Iran does close the strait, we will fight an air and naval war derivative of and yet peripheral to the Iranian nuclear program, a mortal threat the president of the United States has inadequately addressed.

SOCHI, Russia – The International Olympic Committee could take another step this week toward getting baseball and women's softball back into the Olympics as well as adding squash for the 2020 Summer Games in Tokyo.
New IOC president Thomas Bach said Monday he expects discussion by the IOC membership at their general meeting on flexibility toward adding sports, for which the Olympic Charter has a seven-year rule. It mandates sports must be on the Olympic program seven years before the summer or winter Olympics in which they will be contested.
"If the opportunity exists to make such adjustments to the Olympic Games less than seven years before, I would be in favor," Bach said. "If the IOC, the international federations and the organizing committee agree, the seven-year rule need not apply."
That Japan already has plenty of venues for baseball and softball and has a passion for both sports undoubtedly will factor into this decision, which may apply only to the Tokyo Olympics. Squash would have just 64 competitors and need only two courts.
Baseball had been in the Olympics from 1992 through 2008, softball from 1996 through 2008. Both were voted off the program in 2005, with softball losing its place by one vote.
Wrestling defeated both a joint bid by a merged baseball-softball international federation and the squash bid in voting last September for the one available place on the Olympic program.

Congratulations to Alyssa Campanella, the newly-crowned Miss USA 2011! who is dating Tudors actor' Torrance Coombs.
The 21-year-old Miss California beat 50 other contestants at the live pageant last night, and we scored all the details about her winning look, created by designer Sherri Hill. "Alyssa broke all 'pageant rules' by wearing an unusual high fashion design," Hill told InStyle.com exclusively today, "and choosing emerald green for competition rather than a more traditional pageant colour." Hill custom-made the look for Campanella—French beads, sequins and Swarovski crystals on tulle made up the bodice of the gown, while the skirt was crafted from silk taffeta, and fashioned with horsehair to give it an architectural shape.

Featured review from Goldstar Member
view more less of this reviewWe went on July 4 in the early afternoon. The museum was not busy and I was able to walk right up to the Membership desk and collect my tickets. We were told we could walk right in any time. The staff member waited until there were about 10 people in line to begin the tour. It started with a brief film, then another brief film narrated by a docent and highlighting three artifacts. After that, we were free to wander the exhibit at our own pace. We were allowed to take photographs until we reached the room with the actual scrolls at the end of the tour. The fragments are damaged by light, so even the cases were kept dimly lit. I was thrilled to finally see the scrolls I've heard about all my life as a Bible student. My one disappointment was that only about a dozen out of some 900 were on display, and most of those were small fragments. On leaving the exhibit, we saw a sign stating that ten more scrolls were coming later. Why weren't they already there? On the whole, I enjoyed the experience very much. Please be aware that the advertised ticket price is before additional charges. With the Goldstar deal, each ticket came to $20...still a bargain.
star this review starred report as inappropriateThe Dead Sea Scrolls exhibit at the Philadelphia Franklin Institute was very well presented. The artifacts are mounted and described well. However, the exhibit does not "flow" and starting and ending points are confusing. Also, it was extremely...continued
star this review starred report as inappropriateIt was outstanding. Very glad we went. Also very glad we went on a weekday afternoon as we could easily read/see/roam as we wanted without big crowds.
star this review starred report as inappropriateAbsolutely fascinating to see the scrolls. My favorite part was learning about the original care of the scrolls immediately after their discovery - including the use of scotch tape (!!) to hold pieces together.
Dead Sea Scrolls: Life and Faith in Ancient Times is a self-guided exhibit. Guests average 1.5 hours to see the entire exhibit, but you may experience it at your own pace.
General admission to The Franklin Institute is included in your ticket price. With three floors of interactive exhibits and one Planetarium show, The Franklin Institute is a fun and educational way to spend the day for the entire family.

Our Firemen, The History of the NY Fire Departments Chapter 4, Part III By Holice and Debbie The meddlesome and often obstructive character of the help given to the firemen by boys and excitable your men, which caused so much trouble and anxiety in later times to the controllers of the Department, seems to have developed itself as early as 1789, for it is recorded as a decree of the august and reverend fathers of the city, that after the twelfth of August, of that year, no person under the age of thirty years should be appointed to the office of a fireman. But the law proved to be a decided drawback instead of a benefit to the Department, and it was therefore repealed in the following November. The fire engines of the smallest size were used to approach nearest to the fire, and were, therefore, best adapted for the "leaders" to convey water through windows and narrow passes. When the "leaders" were used, none but firemen were willing to support them, and "it was attended by a general wetting by the water which gushes out of the seams." The foreman of these engines petitioned the Common Council for an assignment of ten men to each company, and their petition was acceded to March, 1790. A project was conceived about the year 1789 for converting the Fred Water Pond, and the grounds adjacent, to the embellishment of the city. A company was formed with that view, and a plan drawn, laying out a park, embracing the great and lesser Collect, and extending from the north side of Reade Street to the present sire of Grand Street, so as to include the eminence called "Bunker's Hill." The "Little Collect: commenced at the foot of the hill, on the north side of Reade Street, and was divided from the principal pond by a mound or knoll, through which Pearl Street was carried. On this knoll stood the "Old Powder House," from which the street leading to it from Broadway, now part of Pearl Street, derived its name of Magazine Street. The plan for the conversion of the Collect, as stated, fell through, principally because the supposition if the city's ever extending so far out upon the island was thought by capitalists too visionary to be acted on. Another project, of a more utilitarian character, was subsequently entertained, namely, to connect warehouses surrounding its margin. But such were the limited views in size, business, wealth, and population, it was believed the dock would never be wanted. Between 1787 and 1790 the streets leading from Broadway to Hudson River, from Cortlandt Street upward to the hospital, were regulated, and some of them paved. On the west side, Broadway was paved as far out as Warren Street, and large and substantial brick homes were gradually making their appearance. Greenwich Street, in which the most conspicuous object was the Bear Market, now superseded by the more extensive erection dignified with the name of Washington Market, was prolonged, by leveling high grounds extending northward from the foot of Warren Street, where stood Vauxhall House and Garden, one the seat of Sir Peter Warren. In this year the first sidewalks in the city were laid on the west side of Broadway, from Vesey to Murray Streets, and opposite for the same distance along the bridewell fence. These were narrow pavements of brick and stone, scarcely wide enough to permit two persons to walk abreast. On March 24, 1791, the Legislature passed a law prohibiting the erecting of wooden buildings of three or more stories below what is now Canal Street. All buildings to be erected within this space should be constructed of stone or brick, and should be covered, "except the flat roof thereof," with slate or tile. But such flat roof "may be composed of board or shingles, provided it does not exceed two-fifths of the space of the roof, and be surrounded by a substantial balcony or balustrade." An exception is made to the roofing of existing buildings, and also in favor of buildings erected on ground "not capable of sustaining a foundation, upon which a stone or brick structure can be sustained." This latter exception authorizes the erection of wooden buildings on such grounds within the limits named, after the filing of a favorable report of the majority of five disinterested persons appointed by the mayor to examine the condition of the ground in question. A revised law for preventing and extinguishing fires was passed on November 10, 1791, which, among other provisions, called for the appointment of fire wardens in the respective wards of the city. In accordance therewith the following appointments were made:
First Ward.--John Remsen and Thomas Ludlow.
As marks of distinction at fires, and insignia of official position,
it was decreed by the same law that the wardens should wear caps and
carry certain wands and trumpets. And it was further ordered that all
fines recovered as penalties for violations of the fire laws should be
paid to the engineer, and by him appropriated as the fire marshal should
In this year belong the earliest extant records of any fire company
in the city, namely, those of Engine No. 13, which began in the month of
November; also, the first written report known to have been made of the
doings of the Fire Department proper, was made on the fourth of this
month. The meeting was held in the house of Jacob Brouwer, in Nassau
Street. The minutes of this meeting inform us that "engineers,
firemen, and representatives" attended, but that the engineer and
foremen were the only "representatives" present. The engineers
were: Ahasuerus Turk, chairman; William J. Elsworth, John Stagg, Francis
Bassett, Isaac Mead, and John Quackenbush. The foremen were: Abraham
Franklin, Evert Wessels, Gabriel Furman, John Post, Joseph Smith,
Frederick Eckert, Sylvester Buskirk, Bartholomew Skaats, Jackamiah
Ackerly, Thomas Ash, John B. Dash, Archibald Kerly, William Wright,
David Coutant, John Clark and David Morris. These names represent some
of the most respectable residents of the city.
The Fire Department, on the twentieth of December, 1791, held a
meeting of representatives of their organization, authorized by their
different companies, and framed a constitution, for the purpose of
establishing a fund for the relief of unfortunate firemen whose
misfortune was occasioned while doing duty as firemen. This constitution
reads as follows:
ARTICLE I. A fund, which shall be called The Fire Department
Fund, shall be established with the moneys arising from chimney fires, certificates,
and donations, and with such other moneys as may hereafter be agreed on by such fire
companies as have agreed or may hereafter agree to fund the same.
The Fire Department shall be represented as follows,
viz: The engineers
send one; a company composed of eighteen men or upwards to have two;
and under
eighteen, one representative; and such company to choose them on or
before the
first day of June in every year.
There shall be annually chosen, by ballot, by the
representatives, out of
their own body, a President and Vice-President, and out of the whole
body of
Firemen, at their first meeting, nine Trustees, a Treasurer, and
Secretary, which
Treasurer shall give security to the Trustees for the faithful
performance of his
trust. |

Break lights when using strong re-gen?
Perhaps this is not an issue but if the car has a very strong re-gen when taking the foot off the peddle, would this cause a safety issue?
If the car is decelerating quickly from re-gen or the breaks you want the cars behind you to know.
Does the Tesla Roadster / Model S put the break lights on during heavy re-gen or is the deceleration not that significant?

The driver of a small car is dead after a fiery collision just before 6 p.m. Thursday night west of Revelstoke.
The car and a commercial tractor trailer crashed and both burst into flames on the Trans Canada Highway, and both were totally engulfed.
Police say the impact was so severe they believe the driver of the car died immediately.
They say there was fog in the area at the time of the collision but haven't determined if it was a factor.

Saudi Arabia's ruling family named Defence Minister Prince Salman bin Abdul-Aziz is the new crown prince on Monday.
The royal decree came the day after the burial of the late heir to the throne, Prince Nayef, who died last week in Geneva and was the crown prince only since November. Prince Salman (76) is the third successor for the 88-year-old King Abdullah in the past year.
Prince Salman served for more than four decades in the influential post of governor of Riyadh and is the patriarch of family businesses that include stakes in the pan-Arab daily newspaper Al-Sharq al-Awsat, an important media tool for Saudi's rulers.
Nayef was considered wary of even the modest changes brought by King Abdullah, including pledges to allow women to vote and run in the next municipal elections in 2015. Prince Salman is also viewed a traditionalist, but not deeply tied to the ultraconservative establishment that gives the monarchy its legitimacy to rule.
Prince Ahmed was promoted from Deputy Interior Minister to take Nayef's place leading the Ministry, which has played the front-line role in crackdowns on Islamist militants following the Sept. 11 attacks. The move appears to put Prince Ahmed, believed to be in his early 70s, in a position to be in line for the throne.

Inside IT + Social exclusion
Michael Cross: Britain doesn't do digital grand projects. Like general elections on Sundays, we leave that to continentals. Last week, however, the government announced a shortlist of bidders for what looks like an unashamedly gung-ho attempt to create an exemplar digital community.
A new government strategy claims that IT should be used as a tool for helping disadvantaged people.

TiPb Asks: Are you pre-ordering an iPhone 4S and if so, which one?
In a few hours, at 12:01am PDT / 3:01am EDT, iPhone 4S pre-orders will begin. So... are you pre-ordering? Or if you're reading this later, did you pre-order? If so, let us know what you're getting (or what you got!) Black or white? 16GB, 32GB, or 64GB? GSM/AT&T or Verizon or Sprint CDMA?
Any problems with the ordering process? Did you get a confirmation? What's the shipping date? So. Many. Questions!
Make sure you jump into the TiPb iPhone 4S forums and help us keep track!
If you're not pre-ordering, are you waiting to stand in line at the Apple Store on launch day? Are you waiting for some other reason? Are you skipping iPhone 4S entirely?
Have something to say about this story? Leave a comment! Need help with something else? Ask in our forums!

TiPb Asks: Are you pre-ordering an iPhone 4S and if so, which one?
Would love to get the new one but AT&T isn't subsidizing the phones this year so I won't be getting this Iphone because I'd rather get the next Iphone and since I'll be out of my contract, it will be on either Sprint or Verizon. Maybe I should be thanking AT&T for their cheapness as they've effectively made it so I'll no longer be chained to their crappy reception and dropped calls. The only reason I stuck around was because they subsidized the price of the new Iphone every year. Now that that's gone, so am I come June.
Sad to say that I'll be skipping the 4S. I'm on the 3G -> 4 -> 2012 "even year" track because I missed out on the original 2G.
This cell carrier 2-year lock-in scam is ripe for some industrial-strength "disruptive innovation." I'm looking forward to seeing the carriers getting thrown down the "dumb pipe" staircase.
You lucky people about to get a 4S should pre-order. It's the only way to fly. Unless, of course, you actually want to share in the communal line experience at an Apple Store. Been there. Done that. Got the 3G after waiting hours thanks to AT&T's feeble servers.
nope, no way I'm paying $350 over the early upgrade price.... I'll wait till a completely factory unlocked version comes out and then I'll buy it, or maybe just wait till the 5...
Yes, I will be getting a white 4S with 16 GB of memory. After a long wait and much anticipation, I was pretty bummed after Tuesday's announcement. However, after weighing my options (after all, I sold my iPhone 4 months ago to get full price out of it) I just can't use this iPhone 3G for a moment longer! Now if they drop another iPhone between now and my next fall, I'm going to be perturbed.......
I suppose I'll be preordering, white 64GB, though I may not give up my 3GS for daily use until an untethered jailbreak is out. Even with all the enhancements, for everyday use IMO jailbroken 3GS beats stock 4S. I can't live withou SBSettings, Activator, and multifl0w. Only reason I would still preorder is to ensure that my upgrade period comes around by the time the next iPhone comes out, and sell the 4S for the price of the upgrade.
If sold sim-free from today in US then I will be ordering a 32gb white iPhone 4S. Else I will be ordering a 16gb White iPhone 4S in UK.
Sprint - Black 16 gb - Also first iPhone. Cautiously optimistic. Coming from webOS to iOS. I will be reading the switchers guide the moment my order is final.
32GB, Black, Sprint. The unlimited Data is calling. This will be my 1st iPhone. I've been using phones that offer Data only plans for the past 7 years on T-Mobile, now that no one offers this, it's time for an iPhone. Plus after using an iPod touch for a almost a year I can't wait to dump my BlackBerry! I've been a Mac user since 1990, I've gone too long without an iPhone!
I'll probably be getting it Unlocked since AT&T is giving me the finger on an upgrade. Oh well, getting the phone Unlocked when my contract expires I'll do as I please with the phone. The only thing I can hope for is that a Jailbreak will come along sooner rather than later. I'll be needing MyWi and BiteSMS plus all those game emulators. SBSettings and everything else I can live without.
I'm leaning towards the black AT&T 32 GB to replace my 16 GB 3GS. I might go 64 GB, but I already have a 64 GB AT&T iPad 2 and don't expect to need 64 GB for the phone. Then again 1080p videos and 8 MP photos will take up room.
There's also AppleCare+, which I haven't decided if I should get or not. I've never broken my 3GS, but I know a few people who broke their iPhone 4s. The AppleCare+ would save a lot of money if a 32 or 64 GB breaks, but it only covers drops and liquid damage. Loss, theft and wear and tear damage aren't covered.
On a side note, on AT&T's site, it says I'm eligible for an upgrade, but I get errors when I try to shop. It was working the other day so I assume it's down for the 4S.
2nd note: Discover gives 5% cash back on purchases from the Apple Store, if you go through the link on Discover's site.
no because i can't afford it yet and i want the 64GB black i Sprint model. But i need to wait. Hopefully not wrong but i need to make sure i can afford it.
ill probably preorder at best buy.... i have gotten an iPhone every year from them with virtually no lines
Oh that's cool AT&T and Apple... don't let me Preorder yet. That's cool. Obviously Verizon is a bigger Apple insider than Apple.
I have both AT&T Website and Apple website constantly refreshing. All the while calling Apple over and over again.
just bought 16GB, black (verizon)! Apple's site and phone number both rejected me, but had ZERO problems through vzw.com now I can sleep!
well.. this is definitely taking away the fun of pre-ordering at midnight... I've giving it a few more minutes and then I'm going to bed and trying in the morning.
Can't believe I'm going through this AGAIN, nearly 15 months later. I'm like an abused spouse that just keeps coming back for more.
Why am I unable to complete my order right now?
We are currently unable to reach your carrier's systems to process the information that you have provided. We will hold on to the information you have entered and use it to confirm phone pricing and eligibility for your account.
Fuck you AT&T.
I knew AT&T would break this. Seriously, every other provider has it together but them. Fantastic, AT&T. Thanks for your quality service. If I lived ANYWHERE else, I'd dump you.
Argh! Got all the way to the end on Apple's site and got a "your request couldn't be process" because of high volume with a message to try again later This happened twice so far! I can't get past the "Processing information" step after picking my data plan.
Now I can't get past the are you a new or existing customer step.
just got through on at&t store. apple store was still down at the time. white 32g 4s. good luck to all.
I've tried but it's a no for me. I gotta be up to get to work in a few hours. If they sell out by 6:35am PDT then I'll wait til November when the official Unlocked version comes out, and make that my B-day/X-mas gift.
Any tips on AT&T? I keep getting "Shop Not Found" error on multiple links for AT&T. How are people getting through?
no, I'm getting the Samsung Galaxy S II or the New Nexus. Been an iPhone fan since the beginning, iPhone 4s was a big disappointment, especially after 16 months and hardly a new design.
It's 2:40 AM and I've been trying to order for 45 minutes but the Apple website times out when checking eligibility with ATT. I did check eligibility 2 days ago and 3 of my 5 lines are eligible, but they don't retain that info and so now they can't get through to ATT to check again.
"We are temporarily unable to take iPhone orders..."
AT&T. Wonder if Verizon calls that up on Apple's site?
Edit 2: Yep. Verizon prompts that too. Looks like we broke Apple's servers real good. Or they sold out. Hopefully not that, though.
I just ordered the Sprint iPhone 4S 32gb model. All I did was go to Sprint's Online Store go to the iPhone 4s preorder page and logged in. Then I went to my history and was able to order it....so complicated...took me like 10 minutes though :)
"Shop Not Found". Craziness. Got two confirmations of reservation right now, so no biggie. I'll roll with that, and if it isn't good to go, then I'll just hop over to the Apple Store on launch day.
64GB BLK 4s. Apple site crapped out over and over. Finally went to ATT (god I hate admitting that) and got through immediately. Hopefully will be delivered on the 14th!
It only took me an hour and a half, 3 different web browsers, and many attempts @ both apple's online store and the Sprint website, but in the end Sprint and use of Firefox won out! iPhone 4S 64 GB in Blk is officially pre-ordered on Sprint! Best of all, my upgrade kicked in on Oct. 1st! :)
For anyone who used AT&T and had the unlimited plan did you lose it? I was able to get through, but it tells me that I require a different plan and that they have chosen one for me. I don't want to lose me unlimited. Please advise.
16 GB white (two). Wanted a 32GB due to 1080p videos and 8mp camera but I'm assumib photo stream will will handle that for me. #thankyoustevejobsfor

cleaning staff did a good job of keeping clean linens in our room
our room that we requested was for handicap when we went in it smelled like cigarette smoke they gave us another room which was not handicap we had trouble with the heat it would not shut off or would blow cold air. an electric plug in the wall was not in
Good value and in the area we needed to be. Room was large, bed was good, and staff was helpful and pleasant. Continental breakfast was good but sparse. Shopping close by.
Bathroom where shower and toilet was located was a little cramped. The room had a kitchenette and the microwave and fridge were fine. It also had full-sized stove but the pans and silverware were inadequate and there was no glassware or plates.
Staff was alright... Room was less than I hoped for...very dingy
Just couldn't stand being there.. We left a day early just to get out
Location was convenient. Security was tight.
Room had a bad smell. Looked clean but was questionable.
Quiet. Great price. Staff was helpful.
No coffee pot or access to coffee. You could purchase one for $20. We were only staying for 1 night not a week. You had to pay $10 per week for wifi. Those were my only complaint.
The staff very friendly and went out of their way to be of service.
It was a cheap motel that I paid way too much for. The breakfast was the biggest joke ever. The pastries were stale and the porter used his to refill the stale pastries out of the refrigerator. I am just grateful that nothing bit me.
The hotel was Great For Price,But Priceline Charged Me More Than What The Motel Rates Were !
Only Priceline Hotel Good For Price
Great friendly staff. Well maintained facility. Rooms are clean and more than adequately maintained. I would give it 3 stars. I've stayed here multiple times (about four) and it has consistently met my needs and expectations. A good value for the price.
Can't think of anything I didn't like.
The room was very nicely kept and the service was excellent!
Housekeeping walked in twice without knocking.
Breakfast and lobby
The pool area was rundown . The pool itself had many areas of chipped paint on the floor
A well maintained facility, located close to the historical sites of the town. Restaurants also located nearby.
Had a pesky black fly in our room, harassing us during the entire stay. No fly swatter available from front desk and no offer from front desk to remedy the problem. No help from the front desk regarding a local map or directions to area things-to-see.
Friendly front desk staff, clean rooms, and good breakfast!
The location is right off the highway. Waffle house was right on the corner.
If your looking for a pool DO NOT book this hotel. The pool has no water in it. Continental breakfast is nothing but cereal , milk and juice.
Wasnt clean, no water in pool, nothing in the vending machines, contanintal breakfast was stail, no scooper for the ice machine.
Clean bathroom. Good bed. Good hot water and pressure. TV worked.
Door between rooms was broken and unlockable. Towels were few and pretty thin, but ok. Bathroom was actually quite good.
Only thing I liked was the location
Very outdated, check in staff was very slow, I was in the cold checking in because they lock the door at a certain hour and though she knew this, she did not care to be swift at all. Housekeeping barged in ny room almost 2 hours before check out.
Here's why:
We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.
More questions or if you have a bad price to report to us Please send us an email and someone from our team will get back to you promptly.


text: on Apr 24, 2013 @ 12:30 AMApr 24, 2013 @ 12:30 AM Published The castle where Queen Beatrix hopes to live happily ever afterA tiny hamlet in the green heart of the Netherlands is preparing to roll out the orange carpet for its latest retiree, former Queen Beatrix, but some here wonder whether she'll be as happy as the woman who left 33 years ago.At first glance Lage Vuursche, population 250, looks like any other village in Het Gooi, an area between Hilversum and Utrecht famed for its wealthy inhabitants and natural forests.Cafes with names like De Vuursche Boer Pannekoekenhuis (Vuursche farmer pancake house) front a tree-lined main road, alongside the Dorpshuis (town hall) and ubiquitous Dutch Reformed church.But a few hundred metres (yards) off the main road, a three-metre high black fence under the watchful eye of security cameras and sentry boxes testifies that this is no ordinary hamlet.Behind the fence topped with barbed and electric wire, shielded from view by thick natural forest lies Castle Drakensteyn and its 20-hectare (49 acre) grounds.The name may sound like a contraction of Dracula and Frankenstein but the place itself, a 17th century octagonal-shaped building surrounded by a moat, is every bit the fairytale castle or country manor.The queen, 75, who will revert back to her status as "princess" after handing the throne to her son Willem-Alexander on April 30, is to move back in later this year.Then-princess Beatrix bought the castle in 1959 and moved in four years later, continuing to live there after marrying her husband Prince Claus in 1966.Their three sons were born during the 18 years they lived here until 1981, when the royal family moved to the bustle of The Hague after Beatrix became queen.Beatrix once said that "the happiest years of my life" were spent at Drakensteyn.Hein van Oosterom, a fourth-generation resident and restaurant owner in Lage Vuursche, remembers her previous life here."As a child I remember things being pretty informal. We used to go there over Christmas and sing carols and always got a cup of hot chocolate," he told AFP."When Beatrix became queen, everything changed. She was really looking for privacy and was not that involved in the village any longer," said Van Oosterom."We really hope that will change, now that she's coming back," he said. "But I'm not sure that's going to happen."The village always had an ambiguous relationship with the royals, but tempers frayed a few years ago when the new fence went up and a provider shifted the hamlet's mobile mast onto the castle grounds, affecting reception, Van Oosterom said."The fence was a pretty nasty thing. We're not happy with it, but I have the feeling that the queen did not have much say in the matter." -- Private property -- ----------------------------Being private property, the castle and its grounds are closed to the public. The closest thing that ordinary citizens can see to the well-guarded Drakensteyn is a miniature replica which serves as one of the holes on a nearby mini-golf course."We understand it's necessary to protect her," 79-year-old Gerda Majoor told AFP, tucking into "poffertjes" (mini pancakes) at a nearby restaurant. "But she is indeed a bit of a captive in her own castle."The amount the state will spend on Beatrix's security is unknown, but she will continue to receive a 466,000-euro ($608,000) salary and 947,000 euros for personnel and "material" costs, the government's information service (RVD) said.There is no sign that the energetic Princess Beatrix is letting up from her busy schedule of public engagements, which may often keep her from relaxing at home.She is down to open a number of monuments and museums by the end of May and has already said she is not planning to bid the Dutch people farewell. -- Preparations in full swing -- ----------------------------------------Meanwhile, preparations to celebrate the new king's enthronement on Tuesday are in full swing in Lage Vuursche.Dutch national and orange flags with the outline of Beatrix's face are already fluttering outside many restaurants.At the main square, a tree has been planted in the new king's honour, to be unveiled on Tuesday.Van Oosterom said he hoped that Beatrix's return to the village would boost visitors from 1.2 million to more than two million a year.And the invitation to princess Beatrix to pop in at any time remains open."Majesty, you can always borrow a cup of sugar from us," reads a blackboard outside one cafe."We're looking forward to your return," it added.jhe/cjo/gk

if i was you, i'd just get a new iPhone to not have the thought in the back of your mind that it might be defective. i'm not sure how it is over there in the UK but AT&T (cell phone company that offers the iPhone) doesn't offer insurance on the iPhone, so i have no choice but to NOT have insurance thanks for the vid, first time i see it but ive heard of the new 3.0 update coming out in the summer time. i'm really excited about it, especially about MMS and emailing/texting in landscape!!!! |

I've always been careful with my phones anyway, the thing people complain mostly about iPhones are specs, when apple can easily update the OS without having to worry about carriers it adds more functionality to their products.
Apple always start with a good base and build from it instead of trying to do everything at once and not doing anything well. |

Kill List(2011)Nearly a year after a botched job, a hitman takes a new assignment with the promise of a big payoff for three killings. What starts off as an easy task soon unravels in an unforeseen direction. For more about Kill List and the Kill List Blu-ray release, see Kill List Blu-ray Review published by Casey Broadwater on August 18, 2012 where this Blu-ray release scored 3.5 out of 5. Director: Ben Wheatley Writer: Ben Wheatley Starring: Neil Maskell, MyAnna Buring, Harry Simpson, Michael Smiley, Struan Rodger » See full cast & crew Kill List Blu-ray, Video QualityLike just about every other small-budgeted indie film lately, Kill List was shot digitally using the Red One camera, and the footage transfers easily into a 1080p/AVC encode, in the correct 2.35:1 aspect ratio. I have no doubt that IFC's Blu-ray is faithful to source and intent; there's no edge enhancement here, DNR, or any other unnecessary alterations, and no glaring compression issues. The picture is clean and quite sharp throughout. From a normal viewing distance, noise is only visible in the darkest scenessupposedly, the film was shot almost entirely with natural lightand the level of clarity is often striking. (See the finely reproduced nubbiness of Shel's terrycloth bathrobe, or the skin textures of the actors' faces in closeup.) There's occasionally some softness due to the tricky combo of imprecise focusing and shallow depth of field, but there's not much that can be done about that. Color-wise, the image is well-saturated and nicely graded, with a natural palette that's slightly stylized with punched up contrast and a creamy cast to the highlights. Black levels, skin tones, and shadow detail all look fine. An all-around strong high definition presentation. Kill List Blu-ray, Audio QualityKill List's lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 surround track builds in intensity as the film goes on. The early, dialog-heavy domestic scenes feature a modicum of quiet household noise, the track-em-and-kill-em middle act adds in punches and hammer blows, and the finale explodes with unnerving screeches, bursts of gunfire, and creepy wet-subterranean-tunnel ambience. The rear channels are frequently used for effects and atmospherics, and mix is dynamically hardy, with clear highs and an undercurrent of throbbing, pulsing subwoofer output. What really makes the track is the unnerving orchestral/electronic score by TV composer Jim Williams, which amps up the dread and gives the film its tonal edge. My lone qualm is that the voices are occasionally a hair low in the mix, which can be a concern considering how thick some of the accents are. I didn't have too much trouble deciphering the dialogue, but if you need help, the disc does include optional English SDH and Spanish subtitles.

When performing some driver training last week, we did some side-by-side comparisons of different trucks concerning high volume pumping.
Both trucks were identical with one exception...
One had a 3" discharge plumbed off the side of the discharge manifold...
and the other had a 4" discharge plumbed off the top, yet still had two 90º bends in it.
Here's a pic of the 4" off the top:
You can imagine what the 3" looks like, it's identical to the 2½" facing the camera above, except it's 3".
To test the resistance, we stretched a 100' of 4" hose to a ground monitor, and screwed on a set of pitot tips used to service testing. Using a 2½" tip @ 82 psi, we were flowing 1,509 GPM. Each truck was equipped with a pressure governor to maintain constant discharge pressure, and each discharge valve was left full open (not throttled at all).
The 3" discharge had 90 psi of loss between the master gauge and the line gauge.
The 4" discharge had 30 psi of loss.
I knew there would be a difference, but not that much.
Both were Hale Qmax pumps. Hale offers a 4" off the side, without the 90º bends, but the 4" port (2433 series flange) is optional, not standard, while the 4" off the top is a standard feature on all Qmax's. The side port is known as "port P" in Hale's literature. Hale rates the 3" at 1,500 GPM, and the 4" at 2,600 GPM.
So, if you're specing out a truck, and you ever plan on pumping 1,500 GPM or more to another source through one line, abandon the 3", and embrace the 4" or larger for far less resistance.

Bought a target 7.99 box
I went to Target today to pick up some school supplies, and I saw the "value" boxes on the card aisle. I figured that I would give it a try.
In the 2011 Bowman Draft Picks and prospects pack, I got a base Mike Trout RC and a Taylor Jungmann chrome (both of which had a nicked corner (different corners to be exact, but the Trout was barely noticeable, IMO)). In the 2007 Upper Deck Future Stars, I got a Jesus Flores auto. The "assorted" cards were, as to be expected, worthless. They contained a Gary Sheffield "Future Stars" (I believe it was '89) and an Andres Galarraga blank back card (same year as the Sheffield)(not sure if is a "genuine" card or not, ha). It was fun. I don't plan to trade nor sale. |

Convert can't parse glext.h from the iOS 5.0 sdk
Posted Wednesday, 7 December, 2011 - 12:35 by rolfProject: | The Open Toolkit library |
Version: | 1.x-dev |
Component: | Code |
Category: | bug report |
Priority: | normal |
Assigned: | Unassigned |
Status: | by design |
Jump to:
It barks on lines like these:
GL_API GLvoid glPopGroupMarkerEXT(void) __OSX_AVAILABLE_STARTING(__MAC_NA,__IPHONE_5_0);
(note the lack of GL_APIENTRY)
For reference the files are located in:
Title: | Convert can't parse glext.h for the iOS 5.0 sdk | » Convert can't parse glext.h from the iOS 5.0 sdk |
The converter is designed specifically for the official Khronos ES and CL headers. Headers from other sources are not supported (but I will welcome patches, provided they don't break on the official headers).
Another solution would be to use gccxml to parse the iOS headers and do a simple xml->xml conversion to the format used in the generator. This is something I am considering for a potential full Android/iPhone port, but no concrete plans yet (especially given the current MonoDroid/MonoTouch price).
Status: | open | » by design |
OK, I didn't know the only supported headers were the official Khronos ones (the readme just mentions "ES and CL" headers)
In any case I have an ugly patch that works for us (but wouldn't really make sense for you).

I had a 1975 C&C 30. My understanding is that the Lancer is a C&C hull. My boat had the shoal keel 4'-2" deep. I liked the boat. Yes it had a lot of weather helm in 15-20 knots of wind. Yes it definitely prop walked - you'll get used to it. It is a good sailor and I single handed it all the time. It had a pedestal wheel steering. That was a pain because you had to step up on the cockpit seating to get around and behind the wheel. No anchor locker and no room for a bimini - low boom and mainsheet system middle of cockpit in front of the wheel. I sold it for more than I paid for it after painting the hull and doing an extensive bottom job on it. It had quite a few blisters. This was a fresh water boat. It really sailed well in 10-15 knots, it hated light air or maybe that was just me. I couldn't get it moving in light air.

This came up for discussion last weekend. My boat broker and fellow yacht club member is a woman, married to a guy I've known for 30 years. She is an accomplished sailor with many racing victories to her credit.
As a boat broker, she takes buyers on sea trials in all kinds of boats, power and sail. Normally, if another broker brings her a buyer for a boat she is listing, the buyers broker takes the boat on the sea trial. The selling broker will do it if asked, BUT gets an extra piece of the commission for the trouble.
When she takes a buyer to a sea trial of a boat that she isn't listing, she has found that
almost all the time
, the listing broker (male of course) will come along on the sea trial with her without asking for that extra piece of the commission. The issue is clear, the male brokers don't think that she, as a woman, can handle the boat by herself.
While she shrugs it off, I can tell that is beginning to really annoy her. If she takes a buyer on a sea trial, the listing broker goes along. If a male broker in her office does the same, the listing broker doesn't go along.

J. David Cox, President, American Federation of Government Employees
The House and Senate have appointed members to a conference committee on legislation to revamp the Veterans Affairs health care system. Regardless of how Congress ends up changing the structure to address long wait times for patients, the system will need more money for emergencies. That is one request from the American Federation of Government Employees, which represents many front-line VA employees. J. David Cox is the union's president and a former VA nurse. He joined Tom Temin and Emily Kopp on the Federal Drive to discuss how the problems at the VA are affecting the front-line employees.

Direct Marketing Copywriting, also known as Direct Response Copywriting, requires a rather distinct approach in terms of format, tone and style. As one of the most contested and saturated copywriting arenas, writing strong Direct Marketing (DM) communications is particularly challenging.
Not only does the Direct Marketing Copywriter need to be very comfortable Below-The-Line (BTL), he/she needs to understand the mode in which the target market operates on a cognitive level.
The best kind of Direct Marketing Copywriters are ones who understand how to cut through the smoke of irrelevance and counteract the usual jadedness with which any "cold delivery" Direct Marketing material is often regarded. Good Direct Marketing Copywriting cuts to the chase - it is always relevant, honest and informative in a way that engages the reader.
A solid DM Copywriter elicits a change of behaviour or can catalyse a response. Within an established database, the seasoned DM Copywriter drives conversion and cross-selling like it's his own business.
If you're after Direct Response copywriting that reflects a thorough understanding and refined harnessing of the principles of Direct Marketing, then look no further.
The Collective's Direct Marketing Copywriters work on some of South Africa's top blue-chip Direct Marketing accounts, both on a freelance and full-time basis. They know the AIDA Direct Response model backwards and are constantly finding new ways of creating crafted and memorable Direct Marketing copywriting.

systemd-bootchart — Boot performance graphing tool
systemd-bootchart is a tool, usually run at
system startup, that collects the CPU load, disk load, memory
usage, as well as per-process information from a running system.
Collected results are output as an SVG graph. Normally,
systemd-bootchart is invoked by the kernel by passing
on the kernel command line. systemd-bootchart will then fork the
real init off to resume normal system startup, while monitoring
and logging startup information in the background.
After collecting a certain amount of data (usually 15-30 seconds, default 20 s) the logging stops and a graph is generated from the logged information. This graph contains vital clues as to which resources are being used, in which order, and where possible problems exist in the startup sequence of the system. It is essentially a more detailed version of the systemd-analyze plot function.
Of course, bootchart can also be used at any moment in time to
collect and graph some data for an amount of time. It is
recommended to use the --rel
switch in this
Bootchart does not require root privileges, and will happily run as a normal user.
Bootchart graphs are by default written time-stamped in
and saved to the journal with
Journal field BOOTCHART=
contains the
bootchart in SVG format.
systemd-bootchart can be invoked in several different ways:
The kernel can invoke systemd-bootchart instead of the init process. In turn, systemd-bootchart will invoke /usr/lib/systemd/systemd.
One can execute
systemd-bootchart as normal application
from the command line. In this mode it is highly recommended
to pass the -r
flag in order to not graph the
time elapsed since boot and before systemd-bootchart was
started, as it may result in extremely large graphs. The time
elapsed since boot might also include any time that the system
was suspended.
These options can also be set in the
file. See
, --help
, --sample N
¶Specify the number of samples,
, to record. Samples will be
recorded at intervals defined with --freq
, --freq f
¶Specify the sample log frequency, a positive
real f
, in Hz. Most systems can
cope with values up to 25-50 without creating too much
, --rel
¶Use relative times instead of absolute times. This is useful for using bootchart at post-boot time to profile an already booted system. Without this option the graph would become extremely large. If set, the horizontal axis starts at the first recorded sample instead of time 0.0.
, --no-filter
¶Disable filtering of tasks that did not contribute significantly to the boot. Processes that are too short-lived (only seen in one sample) or that do not consume any significant CPU time (less than 0.001 s) will not be displayed in the output graph.
, --cmdline
¶Display the full command line with arguments of processes, instead of only the process name.
, --control-group
¶Display process control group
, --output path
¶Specify the output directory for the graphs.
By default, bootchart writes the graphs to
, --init path
¶Use this init binary. Defaults to /usr/lib/systemd/systemd.
, --pss
¶Enable logging and graphing of processes' PSS
(Proportional Set Size) memory consumption. See
in the kernel
documentation for an explanation of this field.
, --entropy
¶Enable logging and graphing of the kernel random entropy pool size.
, --scale-x N
¶Horizontal scaling factor for all variable graph components.
, --scale-y N
¶Vertical scaling factor for all variable graph components.
systemd-bootchart generates SVG graphs. In order to render those on a graphical display any SVG capable viewer can be used. It should be noted that the SVG render engines in most browsers (including Chrome and Firefox) are many times faster than dedicated graphical applications like Gimp and Inkscape. Just point your browser at file:///run/log/!
This version of bootchart was implemented from scratch, but is inspired by former bootchart incantations:
The original bash/shell code implemented bootchart. This version created a compressed tarball for processing with external applications. This version did not graph anything, only generated data.
This version replaced the shell version with a fast and efficient data logger, but also did not graph the data.
This was the original graphing application for charting the data, written in java.
pybootchart created a graph from the data collected by either the bash or C version.
The version of bootchart you are using now combines both the data collection and the charting into a single application, making it more efficient and simpler. There are no longer any timing issues with the data collector and the grapher, as the graphing cannot be run until the data has been collected. Also, the data kept in memory is reduced to the absolute minimum needed.
systemd-bootchart does not get the model information for the
hard drive unless the root device is specified with
. Using UUIDs or PARTUUIDs will boot
fine, but the hard drive model will not be added to the
